Even by Wind Dragons MC standards, Irish was always a bit of a dark horse. Not one to confide his secrets, such as where he got that mysterious scar across his neck, he’s quick with his fists and even quicker to jump to the defense of his MC. But is he nimble enough to handle the woman he never saw coming? Or will she leave him with a matching scar across his heart?

Featuring scorching hot chemistry and plenty of sass, DIRTY RIDE is sure to rev your engine and get you immediately hooked!

Ardan "Irish" is part of the Wind Dragons MC. He has never fallen for a woman until he meets Valentina. He loves the club and he will do anything to protect it but Valentina brings in him feelings he can't ignore.

Valentina is escaping her abusing ex. She is not sure if it is smart to fall for a biker who screams danger but for some reason she also feels safe with him. She is in search of new beginnings, a new job and even though she wasn't looking for love, Ardan is making it easy to believe in happiness.

I know the novella was too short but I still enjoyed every second of it. The insta-love type of relationship in a novella is hard to avoid however, I found out in this instance, it didn't bother me at all.

Valentina was a good addition to the women of the MC and I hope to see more of her in books to come.

I love Wind Dragon's MC so when I found out that Chantal Fernando was writing a novella I was extremely excited. I really enjoyed this one, however, I didn't love it like I do the others.

Valentina is on the run from her abusive ex. She's trying to start a new life by keeping her head down and doing what she has to do to protect herself. When she meets Arden "Irish", she doesn't realize he's a completely different type of dangerous.

With this story being only about 100 pages, I understand some things were unavoidable but I just wanted more time with Irish and Valentina. I absolutely loved seeing the guys and girls again. And I can't wait to catch more glimpses of Valentina and Irish in the next Wind Dragons stories.
